Eh, calling Huayhuash a bit more remote than Santa Cruz is a bit of an understatement. Santa Cruz trek is within Huascaran National Park in the Cordillera Blanca, about 2-3 hours from Huaraz. Huayhuash is in the opposite direction about 6 hours away from Huaraz.
Peru is especially amazing for it. Huaraz is like a mecca for trekking and wilderness backpacking. I did 4 days in the Cordillera Blanca and then 8 days in the Cordillera Huayhuash with a few other trips in between. Spent 5 weeks here and it never got old.

Amazing way to end a month of trekking in the mountains of Peru's Cordillera Blanca and Cordillera Huayhuash.
